FIVE BARBECUE SERVING TIPS

1. COCKTAIL PITCHERS

Get people talking and mingling with delicious cocktail pitchers – whether it’s a homemade iced tea, a pretty Margarita or a Cranberry & St. Germain pitcher, the drink section becomes part of the décor!

2. ICED FRUIT

Ice cubes with blueberries, strawberries or raspberries and scoops of frozen melon will be an extravagant addition to any party! Iced fruit can be prepared the day before and takes very little effort, but looks stylish and impressive.

3. CUTLERY & NAPKIN IN ONE

Help your guests tackle the buffet by wrapping the napkin and cutlery in one bundle – and if you want to avoid doing the dishes, choose wooden or plastic cutlery!

4. DRESSINGS IN JARS

Make your own burger dressings and serve them in cute jars on the buffet. Your guests can actually see what they are eating and you avoid having a buffet of plastic bottles.

5. FRIES IN PAPER CUPS

Fries are a perfect match for your homemade burgers. Simply sprinkle with salt and fresh thyme and serve in paper cornets for a crafted look!
